Wings of Time

Wings of Time

A Poem by Maxinne Marie
"

Proposed song for our Capping-Candle Lighting Ceremony as future nurses.

"

 

Wings of Time

 

[Verse 1 �" Male]

Don’t taint this ground

With the color of the past

Are the sounds in bloom with you?

To feel the warmth

In the hands of ‘mighty God

Just take one step at a time

 

[Refrain �" Female]

These lullabies

And the dance of dragonflies

Will reach the sapphire skies

 

[Chorus]

Oh, and we wear the wings of time

So fragile on the inside

But pure for our flight

So take my hand

We’re all part of a grander plan

To unite a sacred lesson

Underneath the wings of time

 

[Verse 2 �" Female]

A thousand dreams had passed

And revived my heart at last

The light in your eyes led me through

This life so incomplete

Like weights strapped around my feet

Tread careful, one step at a time

 

[Refrain �" Male]

These lullabies

And the dance of dragonflies

Will reach the sapphire skies

 

[Chorus]

Oh, and we wear the wings of time

So fragile on the inside

But pure for our flight

So take my hand

We’re all part of a grander plan

To unite a sacred lesson

Underneath the wings of time

 

[Bridge �" Male Lead + Choir]

Sometimes, we need to fall and breathe again

To rise above obscurities within

To feel the wind, we will be free one day

To breakaway

 

[Bridge 2nd Voice �" Female Lead]

Oh, we need to fall

To rise above it all

To feel, we will be free

The wings of time

 

[Chant �" Female Lead + Choir]

The river flows in you

The skylight’s shining through

Believe in the Soul of Heaven

The Hand that wrote the stars

 

[Bridge �" Male Lead + Choir]

Sometimes, we need to fall and breathe again

To rise above obscurities within

To feel the wind, we will be free one day

To breakaway

 

[Bridge 2nd Voice �" Female Lead]

Oh, we need to fall

To rise above it all

To feel, we will be free

The wings of time

Vincent Weathers:

Nope, not really about religion. More on actualization and reaching our dreams as nurses, acknowledging God because He is behind our strength as we go through that journey. The music is epic themed, with chants and all.. ;)

Wow. I like this piece. What genre music do you intend with this? I wouldn't be surprised to hear something Video Game-ish or even something metal-like. Something that sounds along the lines of "Otherworld". According to the ceremony... it sounds like religion? If one decides to fit this to gutair, orchestra or take a metal approach, I would wish to hear it. It sounds good, because I like it. The more I look at it, the more it makes me think of "One Winged Angel" because of the orchestrated chants (I think it is in Latin). The only thing I don't see is a place where the chorus is repeated like some songs. This one is good.
